Abstract

In the present work, we analyse the relationship between the abuse of mobile phone and the toxic substances with the components of the sensation seeking variable. The sample was of 634 students who are enrolled in Burgos capital in second degree of Compulsory Secondary Education and Non-Compulsory Secondary Education. The aim of our study is to clarify some questions about the consequences that the abuse of Information and Communication Technology can be generating in our younger population in order to improve the precocity in the diagnosis, and propose alternatives and educational answers, so as to prevent and guide adolescents.
